Objectives of general skills
- In the field of biological sciences and particularly in the field of the biochemistry, molecular and cell biology, possess highly specialised and integrated knowledge and a wide range of skills adding to those covered in the Bachelor's programme in biological sciences.
- Conduct extensive research and development projects related to biological sciences, in biochemistry and in molecular and cell biology.
- Apply, mobilise, articulate and promote the knowledge and skills acquired in order to help lead and complete a project.
- Contributing to a project by mastering its complexity and taking into account the objectives, allocated resources and constraints that characterise it.
- Show initiative and be able to work independently and in teams.
- Manage and lead research, development and innovation projects.
- Understand unprecedented problems in biological sciences, and more specifically in biochemistry and molecular and cell biology and its applications.
- Organise and lead a research, development or innovation project to completion.
- Methodically research valid scientific information, critically analyse, propose and argue potentially innovative solutions to targeted problems.
- Master communication techniques.
- Communicate, both orally and in writing, their findings, original proposals, knowledge and underlying principles, in a clear, structured and justified manner.
- Adapt their communication to a variety of audiences.
- Master the techniques of written and oral scientific communication in both French and English.
- Develop and integrate a high degree of autonomy.
- Aquire new knowledge independently.
- Pursue further training and develop new skills independently.
- Develop and integrate a high degree of autonomy to evolve in new contexts.
- Apply scientific methodology.
- Critically reflect on the impact of their discipline in general, and on the contribution to projects.
- Demonstrate thoroughness, independence, creativity, intellectual honesty, and ethical values.

- Have acquired the legal training in management to use laboratory animals.
UE's Learning outcomes
This training period should help the students in the selection of the subject of their master thesis. The first period is dedicated to a a general overview of the main techniques used in the laboratory. The second period is adapted to the theme of the selected master thesis.
At the end of this training period, the students will be able to :
- conduct an <em>in vivo</em> metabonomic study on rodents placed in metabolism cages
- establish a metabolic profile on cultured cells
- use the predictive softwares tools Deerk (toxicology) and Meteor (Metabolsim)
- confim the choice of the theme of the master thesis
